Since the 5th generation paid homage to the 1st generation, the 6th generation may be paying homage to the looks of the 2nd gen. Still has the look similar to the 5th generation, but incorporates some retro cues from the 2nd generation.

My inside source from Chevy (trust me this person is legit ) says they are done designing the appearance...working on performance.

either way these photos have been around for like 2 years... no way they were done two years ago, so absolutely zero chance that this is what it looks like. Not a bad thing imo since I hope they can come up with something better. 2nd gen always looked eh to me.
